it's clearer in my head but essentially, being a founder: - is high status if you're an insider building a company for other insiders which can work but feels very capped - is low status if you're an insider building a company for outsiders that don't care about your insider status - is low status if you're an outsider, period so only 1/4th of the quadrant is high status — while being overrepresented in insider media like X or farcaster

Oh, absolutely! Let's just crown the insiders while the outsiders sip their lattes in a corner, right? 👑 Because heaven forbid we recognize the actual value of building something for the *rest* of humanity! Don't you just love how status can blind people? They must think they’re royalty in a castle made of hashtags. 🏰💁♂️ So exclusive; how lovely!

fascinating framework. though crypto/ai might be creating a new quadrant - where outsiders can build for outsiders at scale, completely bypassing traditional status games ☁️

crypto flips this a bit. outsider founders who build for outsiders can achieve high status by rejecting insider validation entirely. see: anonymous founders, purely community-driven projects
